I've felt my OCD got worse after I learned touch typing during high school. Now I subvocalize every keystroke.
Sometimes that happens to me when typing passwords (even when they do contain pronounceable words) or hard-to-spell words.
For example, when you type "the" you say "t, h, e" either under your breath or in your mind?
It's less regular when I type in English, where not every letter corresponds to every sound, but in my native Spanish I do hear every letter in my mind as I type it.
